I'm re-opening this since it was demonstrated that disabling over-sampling appies only to bitmaps, and what is required in the original report is the ability to de-activate the antialiasing of vectors as well, in order to get cleaner edges in print output (i.e. offset printing, where font antialias gets dithered in the plates).
Since Inkscape's PDF exporter is not ready yet for press work and Scribus' SVG importer doesn't support inkscape's SVG completely, bitmap export is still a reliable way to send files to print shops (specially when other tools such as CMYKtool or Separate+ are used to prepare the CMYK separations). In that case, the ability to disable antialiasing in the exporter would be a big plus.
